What Tower of Nero did was it started the battle 30 PERCENT OF THE WAY IN. Generally, Rick Riordan’s books establish a journey and the obstacles that come with that journey, and then there’s a climactic battle scene near the end, which may or may not end in a cliffhanger (FUCK YOU MARK OF ATHENA). I was very surprised by the pacing of this book. I’M STILL NOT FUCKING OKAY OH MY GOD ASLFKJASLKDGJADSLKFJASDLKGJDASLKGJSDFJKL WHAT THE FUCK. I wasn’t nearly as invested in Trials of Apollo as I was in the Heroes of Olympus series, which remains my favorite out of Rick Riordan’s books.īut I read this book so fucking intensely. I’m going to be honest, I literally did not remember what happened in The Tyrant’s Tomb. Not kidding, I literally punched the sofa. This book made me ugly-cry, and laugh out loud, and scream when my parents weren’t home. My review is not.Īlso, there will be spoilers near the end (they should be pretty avoidable).] [Warning: I will be cussing a lot in this review.

I liked that she had to marry the Hero and for money at first, but of course things change and it’s just adorable. The thing that I loved best about Game for Marriage is the storyline. What did you love best about Game for Marriage? A recommended one too! *I received an audiobook in exchange for an honest and unbiased review* But as the story gets better, so did she. She didn't quite get Jared's tone right and it felt awkward at some parts. I was having trouble with Deanna Hurst's narrating a little bit in the beginning. I love how they build up their relationship, that it's not all just lust. Their conversations always brought a smile to my face. And the romance between Sheridan and Jared didn't fail me. Because that's what romance books are all about. If there was one thing I don't like though was how cheesy and corny and cliche(like all romance books so I guess it didn't bother me much) it was in the beginning. The sexual tension between them was just there from the beginning. The sexual tension between Jared and Sheridan just skyrocketed. Every single book I read on fake marriage has the same format yet I never get tired of them. Fake marry, love-hate relationship, then they spend time together, slowly falling in love, none of them would admit it, then BAM! They both fell in love when things suddenly go wrong. I am such a sucker for books about marriage! The format of fake marriage are all the same.

They have physiological qualities that make them unique, however, their role in the ocean is necessary to maintain the balance of the ecosystem. As the dominant predators of the ocean, Sharks have assumed a strong and automatic imagery due to films like Jaws. Headed by Erich Mielke, they conducted surveillance on the East German population, aided by a vast number of civilian informants. The Stasi were the East German secret police and internal surveillance and defense force. She became curious after learning that there are people putting together documents that were shredded by the Stasi.Īnna travels to Leipzig and visits the former headquarters of East Germany’s secret police, the Stasi, which is now a museum. She is interested in the former German Democratic Republic and what has happened to the East German people since the country reunified with West Germany. As an outsider Anna is uniquely positioned to ask East Germans about their experiences, as they do not have to battle with prior knowledge and experience to share their stories. Anna is an Australian working for a television station in Berlin in 1996. As Anna speaks with those whose lives have been traumatised by the Stasi, she reflects on how the reunified Germany has dealt with (or ignored) its citizens' trauma and whether memory can be reconciled. In Stasiland, Anna Funder, the author and first-person narrator, meets and listens to the ordinary people of East Germany: those who resisted the GDR dictatorship, those who were crushed by it, and those who diligently and remorselessly worked for it as Stasi informants or officers.

There's a little bit of something for everyone, and Larkin paints a picture that makes it easy to picture the vibrant decade in the mind's eye. Told in three alternating points of view, the novel is pure historical fiction: we learn not only about flappers, as the series title suggests, but get a peek at what life during the Roaring '20s was like, from prohibition, speakeasies, and gangsters to fashionable clothing, hairstyles, and slang.
